Binder
A binder is a broad category of substances—organic or inorganic—used to hold different materials together in a cohesive mass. Common binders include natural polymers (starch, cellulose derivatives, proteins), synthetic resins (PVA, acrylics, phenolics), and inorganic binders (clays, cement, lime). They are essential in industries such as pharmaceuticals, construction, coatings, ceramics, adhesives, and printing, where they provide structural integrity, adhesion, and controlled release properties.

Eagle Styrene Acrylic 72/ 50 is a co-polymer emulsion consisting of styrene and acrylic monomers, offered at 50% active solids concentration in water. It appears as a milky-white, low-viscosity liquid with a mild odor. This polymer emulsion combines excellent film-forming properties, adhesion, and mechanical strength, making it widely used in coatings, adhesives, sealants, and functional binders across multiple industries.
Eagle Vam Veo( VV50/55)
Eagle VAM VEO VV50/55 is a water-based vinyl‑acetate–ethylene (VAM‑VEO) copolymer emulsion, formulated at 55% active solids. It presents as a milky-white, medium-viscosity liquid with a mild emulsion odor. This copolymer combines excellent film formation, adhesion, flexibility, and toughness, tailored for use in coatings, adhesives, sealants, and functional binders across multiple industries.
Hydrocarbon Resins
Hydrocarbon Resins C5 And C9 Petroleum Resins are synthetic petroleum-derived resins produced through the polymerization of C5 (pentene) and C9 (nonene) fraction monomers. These resins appear as pale yellow to amber solid materials, usually in pellet or flake form, characterized by tackifying and adhesive properties. C5 resins are derived from aliphatic hydrocarbons, while C9 resins originate from aromatic hydrocarbons. Often blended, these resins provide a balance of hardness, tackiness, and compatibility with various polymers. Widely used as tackifiers, binders, and modifiers, C5 & C9 hydrocarbon resins enhance performance in adhesives, coatings, rubber compounding, and more.
Nitro Cellulose
Nitro Cellulose is a highly flammable compound produced by nitrating cellulose through exposure to nitric acid and sulfuric acid. It is a versatile material widely used in coatings, lacquers, explosives, and propellants due to its film-forming properties and rapid drying capability. Nitro Cellulose is available in various grades depending on the nitrogen content and viscosity, making it suitable for industrial, commercial, and military applications.
Setamine ( Melamine Resin)
Setamine (Melamine Resin) is a thermosetting polymer widely used for its excellent hardness, chemical resistance, and thermal stability.
